Jeff O.
Focused on the Upsell
As I write this review, I am fuming because I am subscribed to Skyview, I lost money in the markets on their trades (high volatility day), and they just wasted my time with a long upsell spiel (IV League) only to let me know after the long-winded spiel and a survey to mine all of my personal data that they weren't interested in me because my trading funds are in IRA's. I am in their Diamond Trades. Their trades are uncovered strangles. I have to use Iron Condors, so my profits are smaller. Until today, I was covering the cost of my subscription with a little to spare. What is aggravating about upselling by people like this is that they sell you on how their program is so great and they want to help DIY traders, but when they want to gouge you for more money for something “better”, you realize they are holding back on what you signed up for. Their wonderful program you pay up the nose for is just a teaser to reach deeper into your pockets for something “better” and more expensive.
Response from Sky View TradingAug 26, 2022
Hi Jeff, I am happy to have had the opportunity to speak with you personally and that you are continuing your membership with us! We hope to continue to learn and grow together for a long time to come! I would like to take an opportunity to publicly address your concerns as well. Sky View as a company strives to benefit all traders, regardless of account size, risk tolerance, and portfolio goals. We were saddened to see we had caused Jeff frustration by sending him an ad for a program which teaches strategies that would not currently benefit his trading account. We have begun taking action on this issue, including adding a qualifier to our application to the IV League program. We offer multiple programs at Sky View Trading to benefit all account sizes, with The IV League being our premier program. The labor and overhead of this program is much higher than our lower level programs, which is reflected into its higher initial investment. Eli
